Shame on Kibaki and Kivuitu
Shame on Kibaki, President of Kenya, because he did not have the grace and the moral rectitude to accept defeat at the polls. Shame on Kivuitu, Chairman of the Elections Commission of Kenya, because not knowing whether Kibaki won the recent Kenyan elections, he however declared him the winner with the excuse that he acted under pressure. What a Wimp? Democracy in Africa is in big trouble. The system of voting for candidates only works when the ruling classes win re-election; but whenever there is a chance of losing, then the you know what hits the fan. The promoters of democracy, for some reason, are always mute when their collaborators in crime for the oppression of the people manipulate votes after elections but however cry foul when the true peoples representatives try the same. We all know that no oppressor ever gives up power willingly but that power has to be taken from him. The death of over three hundred (300) innocent Kenyans as the result of Kibaki's foolishness does not bode well for the future. Evil triumphs when good people do nothing. The dictators of the continent should be stopped by reason before the violent alternative arrives. Have we already forgotten what happened in Algeria and the consequences up to this day?
